The Shiver by Tom Montag

The shiver
of a winter
morning.

The light.
Birds at
the feeder.

My need
for one more
moment

like this.
Again, morning,
again.



Tom Montag, Fairwater, Wisconsin, is most recently the author of In This Place: Selected Poems 1982-2013. In 2015, he was the featured poet at Atticus Review (April) and Contemporary American Voices (August). Home-made music is important to him: he plays once a week with a friend, for their own amusement.
